I am assuming everyone else knew that the T. E. Lawrence who wrote Crusader Castles is also known as "Lawrence of Arabia?" Or did someone forget to tell me!
I suppose I should look for a copy of Crusader Castles — his Seven Pillars of Wisdom was one of the most astonishing books I've ever read. That was many years ago, but it stuck with me that I needed to re-read it again someday.
